Purpose
The group's official website states that their purpose is to prepare the way for the coming of the English avatar, who is variously identified as The Hooded Man, Woden, HelgiH and Kalki.
"Woden's Folk was set up to prepare the way for the coming of The Hooded Man who is the Crowned and Conquering Son who will incarnate when the Hanged God is swallowed by the Wolf. This astronomical event will take place at the Winter Sunwend of Year 12 : Age of Ing (2012)."
Woden's Folk is a unique Wodenist Movement that rejects the old archetype of the Hanged God in favour of The Avenging Son, seeing this as the archetypal god-image for a new world-age which it calls the Age of Ing or Age of the Son ("Ing" means "son of"). It refers to this figure as Widar the Avenger, the Woodland Warrior, and connects him with The Hooded Man in the Robin of Sherwood television series.
In addition, the group opposes England's multiracial society.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“Language, the machine of the poet, is best fitted for his purpose in its rudest state. Nations, like individuals, first perceive, and then abstract. They advance from particular images to general terms. Hence the vocabulary of an enlightened society is philosophical, that of a half-civilised people is poetical.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
“If God bestowed immortality on every man then when he made him, and he made many to whom he never purposed to give his saving grace, what did his Lordship think that God gave any man immortality with purpose only to make him capable of immortal torments? It is a hard saying, and I think cannot piously be believed. I am sure it can never be proved by the canonical Scripture.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
